August von Kageneck, fils d'un aide de camp de Guillaume II, neveu de von Papen, a revêtu l'uniforme en 1939 - il n'avait pas dix-sept ans - et ne l'a quitté qu'en 1955. Son récit sincère et lucide est l'un des plus remarquables témoignages qu'on puisse lire sur les douze années du IIIe Reich, telles que les a vécues, de l'intérieur, un jeune homme de la vieille noblesse allemande, des ivresses de la victoire à l'humiliation de la défaite.

Des sept ou huit mille cobayes, moins de cinq cents sont rentrés chez eux. L'auteur a recherché et retrouvé ces survivants.
